Best Classes and Racials for Zandalari Trolls and Kul Tiran Human Allied Races

After a long wait, Kul Tiran Humans and Zandalari Trolls are finally available in the game! Being the most recent additions to the Allied Races roster, both new races make old questions arise. "Should I race change to one of them?" "Which class should I make my Zandalari Troll or Kul Tiran Human?". In order to help answer these questions, we've prepared this article covering the benefits and downsides of these races.

The Weight of Racials in Battle for Azeroth

Before looking into the new races, it is important to talk about the importance of races in the grand scheme of WoW during Battle for Azeroth. Unlike previous expansions, races no longer have many discrepancies between them. As far as raw throughput goes, as in, how much damage or healing you can gain by having a character from a certain race, the gains are minimal. Most races' bonuses represent around 1% gain for the grand majority of specs, with little variance between them save certain special interactions.

With virtually no change on what race you are rolling, it is generally more important for players to look into other aspects of a race when choosing. For instance, if they enjoy the utility that one race provides, they should probably play it, or even if they like how their favorite transmog looks in that race, or how well it fits their character story. Many different reasons can make you favor a race, and all of them are right.

Out of these traits, the most impactful is Solo un Graffio, which provides the same benefit from Tauren di Alto Monte, but has the addition of healing the character for 2% of all damage taken over 4 seconds, a strong trait for tanks.

Besides that, Kul Tiran Humans also have access to Martellata, which provides them with an extra stun and knockback on a 2.5-minute cooldown.

Best Classes for Kul Tiran Humans

For DPSers, in general, Kul Tiran is a decent option, being competitive with other races, but not optimal for any specialization. For healers, Kul Tiran is a decent option due to the increase in versatility from Solo un Graffio and its healing when you take damage can be very useful as well.

Zandalari Trolls have an unique racial: Abbraccio del Loa. This racial allows you to have different passive bonuses depending on which Loa you decide to follow. However, you can only change this every 5 days, so be aware to not be stuck with a passive you wouldn't like to for a long period of time.

Other benefit from Zandalari Trolls is Rigenerazione, a really strong active spell that can be game-changing. However, the spell has a caveat: it is interrupted by any damage taken and it ramps over time, meaning you might get little to no healing if you're interrupted too fast.

Best Classes for Zandalari Trolls

Overall, the Loa bonuses are pretty average for all available classes, with other race options having slightly stronger racials.

If Embrace of Kimbul depends on your attack power how this can be good for casters like elemental shaman? Your damaging abilities have a chance to cause the target to bleed for over 6 sec. This effect stacks up to 3 times.

Hero dmg and bloodmallet show embrace of bwonsamdi being good for retri and some other specs while kimbul not showing for many of those, why the disparity in results?

Bloodmallet is showing bwonsamdi being better than kimbul for a LOT of specs. They also show their working. I'm going to take those sims over these suggestions unless they can show their work.

The whole golden paladin look is cliche to me as well, I prefer to look like a savage troll paladin been waiting for that since BC. (:

Need to edit the title of this segment. I didn't know Kul Tirans worshipped Loa!

IIRC attack power is based on main stat as of 8.1

Pop bubble. Cast Regeneratin'. Good thing most of us play Horde already, huh?

That is complete Basic PvE Enviornment and sorry to bring myself to y'all.

Horde are growing more healers from Z.Troll for Abbraccio di Akunda in Both Enviornment (pve/pvp) and Dps want Abbraccio di Bwonsamdi to survive in the PvP include Warmode. Dru "cough", Ro "cough", P "cough" and all healer spec are Z.Troll's best class for the PvP and o yea Shaman are still good too.

Abbraccio di Pa'ku are nothing and it's just a Main Loa. Main Loa is that u're doing Leveling, WQs, Wpvps, Dungeons, and that it. Also not include Raid and PvP. So you have 5 freaking Days CD and you can change Loa b4 going to Raid and PvP.
